electronic synthesis
Andreas Voccia lives and works as a musician in Berlin. Originally trained as a jazz guitarist, he now devotes himself primarily to the modular synthesizer in order to implement the compositional principles of contemporary classical music in an improvisational and interactive environment. In addition to his work as a solo artist, he is involved in several projects in the Berlin experimental and free jazz scene.
In his music he explores abstract concepts such as movement, pattern, space and time, as well as the way in which all these elements are interwoven through resonance processes. These explorations serve as his approach to fundamental questions about the nature of reality. Influenced by composers such as Iannis Xenakis, Gérard Grisey, Francisco Guerrero and Alberto Posadas, Andreas is constantly working on a musical aesthetic that depicts the complex phenomena of the natural sciences and makes them audible. It is particularly important to him to find a poetry in these processes that addresses the tension between the inner world and the outer world.
Cate Hops, March 16ᵗʰ 2025
With a scientific background in visual and media anthropology, her ideas revolve around the concept of space as a social practice.
Musically, as a dj, performer and curator she shifts between scenes and genres coming with a background in roots and dub, over UK bass related sounds and tekno, to more experimental forms of contemporary electronic and electro-acoustic music. As a performer she is working on her own live noise improvisations and has co-founded the Fem*noise network.
With the ongoing project „Sound System Culture: On the Radical Roots of Rave“, she initiates events in which the audience the audience is actively involved. In her radio show, she invites guests from her network to discuss with her and play their favorite tracks. As a scientist, Eugenia Seriakov also gives lectures, e.g. at the ICTM conference in Lisbon, the Unsafe+Sounds Festival in Vienna, the Goethe University Frankfurt and the Art University Linz. She is currently a PhD candidate at the DFG Emmy Noether Research Group “Sound System Epistemologies: Knowledge Engendered Through Practice”

Elena Kakaliagou in a duo with Hannes Teichmann on February 22nd
Elena Kakaliagou has developed her own language on the horn: lyrical and melancholic, angry like a stormy sea or calm as a breeze. Kakaliagou gives acoustic and amplified concerts, with or without vocals. The studied horn player offers a new approach to her instrument – melodic, microtonal, quiet, singing and always open to spontaneity. @elena_kakaliagou
For Hannes Teichmann, music is a playground. He is a electronic live musician, DJ and initiator of various music-related projects and situations. Rooted in the Berlin and Regensburg underground scene and DIY culture of the 90s, he is driven by a lively curiosity and love for music, sound and its social relationships.
Peter Strickmann. Jan. 19ᵗʰ 2025
Peter Strickmann
is a Berlin based soundartrist and performer. Through the use of radically simple and sparse
means, he aims to reveal and rewire the multiple listening habits that evolve from daily routine
and sudden surprise. While observing and animating the vibrant „thing“ and its social,
acoustic and theatrical feedback he enables shared listening environments in exhibitions
and performances. He studied Audiovisual Art with Christina Kubisch at HBK Saarbrücken,
runs an ever growing Schnarcharchiv (snoring archive) and performs solo and collectively
with his various selfbuilt wind- and percussion-instruments. He appeared on festivals like
audiograft (UK), Seanaps (D), Delta Wave (BE), blurred edges (D), The Listening Biennial
(intl.), Musikfestival Bern (CH) and published his solo and group-sounds on labels like Ana
Ott, 901 Editions, Rayon, meudiademorte, Stenze Quo, econore, SPAM and Dazy&Holy.
